Why? I think it's time to tackle a new theme for my blogging and I think that my YouTube vlogs can continue on the legacy of my talking about my life.</div><div style="color: #3d596d; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 25.5px; margin-bottom: 24px;"><em>So, what's the new project?</em>&nbsp;You may ask.</div><div style="color: #3d596d; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 25.5px; margin-bottom: 24px;">Since I'm 18 and met Sheppard, FAS, Mychonny, Evan Edinger and is about to meet Dan and Phil in August, not to mention got noticed by D&amp;P and Slyfoxhound in twitter + tumblr and a bunch of other stuff involving my fave internet stars and musicians, I want to create a new blog series journaling all my fandom experiences, from Club Penguin in 2007 to Phandom + TV Shows of today, I will recap everything that I can remember and create a monthly blog series called '<em>Confessions of a Fan Girl</em>' which is basically me confessing everything fandom related.</div><div style="color: #3d596d; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 25.5px; margin-bottom: 24px;">Like what? You ask.</div><div style="color: #3d596d; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 25.5px; margin-bottom: 24px;">So far, I will write about:</div><ul style="color: #3d596d; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 25.5px;"><li>How I became a fan girl</li><li>What's my general description of a fan girl</li><li>The Unwritten Laws of the phandom</li><li>How to let your senpai notice you</li></ul><div style="color: #3d596d; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 25.5px; margin-bottom: 24px;">And many others.</div><div style="color: #3d596d; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 25.5px; margin-bottom: 24px;">And what's going to be interesting about this series is that I will try to write it in an academic paper level. That's right, I &nbsp;will write (or at least try to) these blog post as if I'm writing something for my university. It's going to be somewhat professional with journal articles that I can get a grab on in my uni's online library + e-resources. So due to this, these post will be long, like 1000+ words long.</div><div style="color: #3d596d; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 25.5px; margin-bottom: 24px;">So what will happen to life out of the camera?</div><div style="color: #3d596d; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 25.5px; margin-bottom: 24px;">It will stop for now but it's memory will CARRY ON!!! (Sorry... got MCR stuck in my head). So for now, this is goodbye for my 1 year old baby and time to try writing professionally (or at least a bit professionally).</div><div style="color: #3d596d; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 25.5px;">My name is Cutiejea and this has been the final post for now about my&nbsp;<i>Life out of the Camera</i>.</div>Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-69398123166986254782016-07-03T07:14:00.002-07:002016-07-10T06:45:16.660-07:00I want to give up... but I can’t because it’s mandatory.<b style="font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot;, helveticaneue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">NOTE: Not naming the company or anything else due to legal reason (and i don't want to be hunted down).

I just now realised that my dreams and goals are probably never ever gonna come true and if it did... well, I may have to leave the country or something. IDK... I'm just feeling a bit negative.</span><br /><span style="background-color: rgba(255 , 255 , 255 , 0.00784314); font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: rgba(255 , 255 , 255 , 0.00784314); font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">You see,&nbsp;</span><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314); font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot;, helveticaneue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">last month, I posted how time was moving really fast for me since I have internship interview and I'm about to reach second semester of university and stuff like that but life decided to press the breaks for me and I didn't get the internship... or even get interviewed for that matter.</span><br /><span style="background-color: rgba(255 , 255 , 255 , 0.00784314); color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: rgba(255 , 255 , 255 , 0.00784314); color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">Yes, the company that wanted to&nbsp;interview&nbsp;me... they canceled 1 HOUR before the interview. Why? Because at 1:25, the person saw me with my dad and thought 'oh she doesn't look independent, let's cancel on her!' (BTW, my interview starts at 3pm). So at 2pm when I'm at KFC with my dad and brother, I got a text and call saying that they found someone already. My dad thought it was not fair that he decided to text the company.</span><br /><span style="color: white;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span></span><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">That's when we discovered that it was because he came with me when WE WERE FINDING OUT WHERE IT WAS!!! It's not like my dad will enter with me, we we're just finding out where it was.</span></span></span></span><br /><span style="color: white;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span></span><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">From that point, I felt too upset to do things. I was at my part-time job and I got extra shifts due to people quitting and one is a co-worker who is gonna have a part time job in a finance company (which&nbsp;accommodates&nbsp;to her course). I have a uni classmate who also got a part time job. And my cousin got an internship in a hospital since it's part of his course.</span></span></span></span><br /><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: white;"><br /></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">I guess everyone is getting long term paid/beneficial&nbsp;experiences while for me, I'm stuck doing volunteer work which I don't mind doing but I can't just be doing volunteer work forever.</span></span></span></span><br /><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><span style="font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;">What’s worse is that Internships are mandatory in my university so I fear I can’t graduate due to this.</span></span></span></span></span><br /><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">If I compare my life with my cousins and the people around me who are at the same age as me, it shows that I'm way left behind... like way back. My channel isn't getting anywhere, no one wants to accept me (and I applied to nearly 30 jobs) and by this point, I feel like giving up.</span></span></span></span><br /><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">I don't want to give up thou since I love doing what I do but I'm 18, I need to get paid or at least have long-term experience based on my skills, not picking up small scraps of jobs that I can grab.</span></span></span></span><br /><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314);"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">I was warned that there is not many position in the industry that I want to enter and I convinced myself that I can still do it. That's why I made my channel, to prove my worth. I made videos using 2 giant pieces of cloth bought from Lincraft. I own a DLSR camera since I know it's one step closer to good quality content but at the same time, I can't afford the programs they expect me to use. I can't afford AVID, I have absolutely no idea how to use After Effects and Wordpress is still a giant issue for me. I want to learn these things but I can't access the free membership in Linda.com.</span></span></span></span><br /><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: white;"><br /></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255 , 255 , 255 , 0.00784314); font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">So I'm still lost.</span></span></span><br /><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314); font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: &quot;helvetica neue&quot; , &quot;helveticaneue&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , &quot;arial&quot; , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.00784314); font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">I feel that my passions should just be forgotten and that I should let them go.

AND IT'S HAPPENING TOO FAST!!!<br /><br />For starters, TATINOF is happening in Australia this August and as admin for Phandom Aus/NZ on Twitter and Tumblr, we got a lot of questions and people literally expect us to answer all the questions. We managed to give the best advice thou.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/ClIlmWiUYAAQzsy.jpg:large" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/ClIlmWiUYAAQzsy.jpg:large" width="320" /></a></div><br />Also... we made #RowPals a trend for a short time<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YMPglf3efkc/V3Em4OixgxI/AAAAAAAABi4/FbIOt5QaUTsBk3Ab7qoYoYNBWSs_WwLsQCLcB/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2016-06-27%2Bat%2B11.14.45%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YMPglf3efkc/V3Em4OixgxI/AAAAAAAABi4/FbIOt5QaUTsBk3Ab7qoYoYNBWSs_WwLsQCLcB/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2016-06-27%2Bat%2B11.14.45%2BPM.png" width="476" /></a></div><br /><br />Another is that I'm about to enter second semester of University so god knows what's gonna happen to me and my future. I saw one of my subjects and I got near credit for it! Which is really cool in my book!<br /><br />Third is that I got an internship interview and I got accepted to do volunteer cinematographer work for Smash (the Anime convention). And I'm soo excited since I'm about to get some experience... except it's for free (BUT IM GETTING PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE!!!)<br /><br />So many things are so many going on with my life that it's all happening too fast.<br /><br />This is really cool but also really scary.<br /><br />The reason for that is the fact that I'm scared that I may not be ready for all this change. I'm just a kid (well, technically 18 years old so an adult) but I'm going to face my future and adulthood in a really fast pace that it scares me that I may screw up, that I'm doing too many things. I just want things to slow down.<br /><br />This was me when I got my VIP ticket and I'm still surprised I managed to get one:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3cfJYfUPwA8/V3EnYboeGEI/AAAAAAAABjE/Zpbusc3xBRAUym7_nlHQ68DD4YICaYeFgCLcB/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2016-06-27%2Bat%2B11.16.44%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="444" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3cfJYfUPwA8/V3EnYboeGEI/AAAAAAAABjE/Zpbusc3xBRAUym7_nlHQ68DD4YICaYeFgCLcB/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2016-06-27%2Bat%2B11.16.44%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br />People both offline and online think I have potential and that I'm very reliable and stuff and I'm cool with that. People thank me for working late hours and working hard just to get stuff done and I'm happy to do that. But the main question is... when was the last time I had a break?<br /><br />One of my greatest wishes besides meeting my heroes and passing uni and hopefully moving out (sorry family), is to be able to have a break from everything for at least a week, which never happened. Just one week of doing whatever I want. No Phandom Aus/NZ, no work, no school, no parents nagging... just me and my laptop with internet where I can catch up on whatever I want.<br /><br />Unfortunately, that's too much to ask and it will never happen. Well, it was close from happening if I was permitted to go to Vidcon 2016. The plan was go to USA for a week for Vidcon and other stuff like sightseeing and stuff. No parents, no chaos, just me and what I have for a 1 week break of life itself.<br /><br />But I guess that's too much to wish for I guess which I quite understand... since once again, I'm just a kid.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3r8uS_MOtP8/V3EmZB6dGfI/AAAAAAAABiw/R5Xk4kNsii4eNDYw631i8axhhhP9rrhgACLcB/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2016-06-27%2Bat%2B11.12.27%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="226" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3r8uS_MOtP8/V3EmZB6dGfI/AAAAAAAABiw/R5Xk4kNsii4eNDYw631i8axhhhP9rrhgACLcB/s400/Screen%2BShot%2B2016-06-27%2Bat%2B11.12.27%2BPM.png" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br />But yeah, I still yearn for that 1 week break from life.<br /><br />My name is Cutiejea and this has been my <i>Life Out of the Camera</i><br /><br />PS: D-3 Section 4!!!

Just to let you know.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Ok for this post, I may get love or I may get hate. Either way, I need to get this out there. I tried to make a video about this but it always end up me not making sense whatsoever so I've decided to let it go but after jumping in to YouTube again and seeing another kind of video that I will be mentioning here in this post, I need to speak my mind out.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Also for this post, I will not mention names and show any videos because it will lead to an online war where I don't want to get deep in to.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">So lets get started.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Today's blog post is about how YouTubers are using Dan and Phil or targeting fan groups for views.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Listen, I'm fine with whatever video you want to make since YouTube is such a creative space. You can bring up YouTubers as well to show that you've been in the loop, like you know what this space is and all that but there must be some line between '<span style="font-style: italic;">being original</span>' and '<span style="font-style: italic;">using fan groups</span>'.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Lets start with you guys accusing me of using 'dan and phil' in my channel. Listen, I make original content as well. To be honest, I make more original content than my fandom content. It's ratio is literally near a coin toss and I try to pursue more on my original content. And also, I've been in the phandom since 2014, I co-run <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a dataquery="#txtMedia1hrt" href="https://www.blogger.com/null">@PhandomAus</a></span> on Twitter and even written fan fiction (one of them got shortlisted for a university level creative writing contest). So if I make D&amp;P videos, it doesn't matter since I have some involvement with the group.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">My issue is people who are like 20 - 30+ people who are making videos about them. The weird part is that they look like they have no idea who Dan and Phil or any other youtubers are but know that if they make D&amp;P content, they can attract an audience.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I'm not accusing youtubers like '<span style="font-style: italic;">Crank that Frank</span>' that he's part of this group, no... he's fine, there are others and I will not name them.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Listen, I'm not saying that you can't make these kinds of videos, it's your channel, do whatever you want. However, I make D&amp;P videos when necessary, I don't have the ability to make them all the time. Even if I do, I make a decent amount of views. And I'm part of the Phandom.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The other group thou, they have no idea who they are, they just have to do a single Google search to find out who they are, read @UpdatedPhan on twitter just to have accurate constant updates about them and in the end, make a simple video and get more views than me. (Let me repeat, these people have ABSOLUTELY&nbsp;NO IDEA who Dan and Phil are and GET MORE VIEWS for making basic to near-advanced content while I get at least 100 - 500 views when I make Phan videos).</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I know I have no right to complain or anything since people will nag, saying '<span style="font-style: italic;">make better content</span>' or '<span style="font-style: italic;">you suck</span>' or '<span style="font-style: italic;">you have a really small following</span>'&nbsp;and other bullshit. But that's the thing, I tried EVERYTHING I could do and I also have other plans as well to post online but I feel like it's kinda unfair that there are people who&nbsp;COMPLETELY have no idea who these people are and get more views than me.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Is this fair? No! But can we do anything about it? Not really.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">And that's the thing, I think people doing something like this is really unfair but there is literally nothing I can do about it since I'm just a small person. I don't think even my online friends can help me fight this battle since it's either they don't care or it's nothing to be worked up about. I know this shouldn't bother me but my recommendations feed lately besides Undertale, Drama Alerts and British Vloggers video recommendations, I will stumble across a video where people who are SOO OLD, reacting to PINOF or Phan Fiction just to get views!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I dare you to find these channels and question them about the advanced knowledge in the phandom like 2012 or V-day or anything else. Or better yet, ask if they went to TATINOF or MET THEM IN PERSON (Get Photo/video proof)&nbsp;or check their social media accounts if they post/reblog/retweet D&amp;P content.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Same goes for other YouTubers that these people 'pretend' to know. Ask them the advanced knowledge about them, if they met them, if they bought a decent amount of merch. If they can't answer that, then they're just using them for views.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Anywho, this is just a rant that I've been having a hard time expressing through video and decided to type it all down in a blog post.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">But do you have anything else to add in the conversation? Let me know!</div><div style="text-align: justify;">My name is Cutiejea and this has been my <span style="font-style: italic;">Life Out of the Camera</span>.</div>Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-19471900600991713042016-05-03T01:15:00.001-07:002016-07-04T06:48:32.166-07:00Social Media – The Impacts it creates for Young Girls (ft.

Big named people like celebrities uses social media like Twitter to communicate to their followers and through this, it has also given anyone the opportunity to become famous. However, the use of social media for young girls opened up topics such as body image, mental health, and identity as this has evolved on how women were portrayed in the past in traditional media to the digital age where anyone with an Internet connection could be affected and the unclear difference between the online and real life identity.</div><div><br /></div><div>For the sake of this topic, I also interviewed&nbsp;Sophie Milton (aka: Amazingdogpie), a songwriter with 2 thousand subscribers on YouTube&nbsp;via Twitter to give her viewpoints on the subject.</div><div><br /></div><br /><div class="cke_widget_wrapper cke_widget_block cke_image_nocaption cke_widget_selected" data-cke-display-name="image" data-cke-filter="off" data-cke-widget-id="4" data-cke-widget-wrapper="1" tabindex="-1"><div class="align-center cke_widget_element" data-cke-widget-data="%7B%22hasCaption%22%3Afalse%2C%22src%22%3A%22%2F%2Fstatic.wixstatic.com%2Fmedia%2Feb8a98_4d6e296a594a4f7fade31a09dfd71546.png%22%2C%22alt%22%3A%22%22%2C%22width%22%3A%22626%22%2C%22height%22%3A%22183.16568742655699%22%2C%22lock%22%3Atrue%2C%22align%22%3A%22center%22%2C%22classes%22%3Anull%7D" data-cke-widget-keep-attr="0" data-cke-widget-upcasted="1" data-widget="image"><span class="cke_image_resizer_wrapper"><img alt="" data-cke-saved-src="//static.wixstatic.com/media/eb8a98_4d6e296a594a4f7fade31a09dfd71546.png/v1/fill/w_626,h_183/eb8a98_4d6e296a594a4f7fade31a09dfd71546.png" height="183.16568742655699" src="//static.wixstatic.com/media/eb8a98_4d6e296a594a4f7fade31a09dfd71546.png/v1/fill/w_626,h_183/eb8a98_4d6e296a594a4f7fade31a09dfd71546.png" width="626" wix-comp="{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;innercomp_9y2m2p8l&quot;,&quot;dataQuery&quot;:&quot;9y2m2p8l&quot;,&quot;propertyQuery&quot;:&quot;9y2m2p8l&quot;,&quot;componentType&quot;:&quot;wysiwyg.viewer.components.WPhoto&quot;,&quot;styleId&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;skin&quot;:&quot;wysiwyg.viewer.skins.photo.NoSkinPhoto&quot;,&quot;display&quot;:&quot;block&quot;,&quot;marginLeft&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;marginRight&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:1,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;//static.wixstatic.com/media/eb8a98_4d6e296a594a4f7fade31a09dfd71546.png&quot;,&quot;isFullSize&quot;:false}" /><span class="cke_image_px_indicator">​</span><span class="cke_image_resizer" title="Click and drag to resize">​</span></span></div></div><div style="text-align: center;">(<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a dataquery="#txtMedia716" href="https://www.blogger.com/null">Sophie's youtube banner</a></span>)</div><div><br /></div><div>Throughout history, women were portrayed in media as ‘<span style="font-style: italic;">the perfect housewife</span>’ and how they should be ‘<span style="font-style: italic;">serving their husbands</span>’ and so on.

A group of girls said that they enjoy using social media as they know there are people out there viewing their content and have the ability to showcase their lives and brag about it to them while a group of teens talked about how they use social media just to communicate with their distant relatives. Social media has changed on how we communicate with others all over the world and this gave the idea of the world going smaller.</div><div><br /></div><div>When YouTube star Zoe Sugg posted a selfie with her in pajamas while her underwear is exposed on Snapchat, The Sun (2016) stated that Zoe’s exposing herself to her audience as young as 10 and deemed ‘inappropriate’. This created the <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a dataquery="#txtMedia181p" href="https://www.blogger.com/null"><span style="font-style: italic;">#WeStandWithZoe</span></a></span>&nbsp;campaign on Twitter (2016) as Zoe commented that it was a disgrace that The Sun reported about her rather than other important things as her post was meant to be innocent. This opened up a discussion of online identity as Zoe just wanted to post something innocent but she’s now categorised as a ‘celebrity’ due to the way she perceived in the online world due to the amount of attention she receives. Sophie said to me that she doesn't see herself as a celebrity but her fans love to praise her in that way and also mentions that she gets targeted for her talent due to the accusation of copying another songwriter. This shows that once you reach a certain level of attention, you start to feel pressure between your real and online identity.</div><div><br /></div><br /><div class="cke_widget_wrapper cke_widget_block cke_image_nocaption cke_widget_selected" data-cke-display-name="image" data-cke-filter="off" data-cke-widget-id="1" data-cke-widget-wrapper="1" tabindex="-1"><div class="align-center cke_widget_element" data-cke-widget-data="%7B%22hasCaption%22%3Afalse%2C%22src%22%3A%22%2F%2Fstatic.wixstatic.com%2Fmedia%2Feb8a98_b8c232cfeaa74532b91f1b4fcf3520ca.png%22%2C%22alt%22%3A%22%22%2C%22width%22%3A%22287.96%22%2C%22height%22%3A%22492.42230483271373%22%2C%22lock%22%3Atrue%2C%22align%22%3A%22center%22%2C%22classes%22%3Anull%7D" data-cke-widget-keep-attr="0" data-cke-widget-upcasted="1" data-widget="image"><span class="cke_image_resizer_wrapper"><img alt="" data-cke-saved-src="//static.wixstatic.com/media/eb8a98_b8c232cfeaa74532b91f1b4fcf3520ca.png/v1/fill/w_288,h_492/eb8a98_b8c232cfeaa74532b91f1b4fcf3520ca.png" height="492.42230483271373" src="//static.wixstatic.com/media/eb8a98_b8c232cfeaa74532b91f1b4fcf3520ca.png/v1/fill/w_288,h_492/eb8a98_b8c232cfeaa74532b91f1b4fcf3520ca.png" width="287.96" wix-comp="{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;innercomp_txtMedia250e&quot;,&quot;dataQuery&quot;:&quot;txtMedia250e&quot;,&quot;propertyQuery&quot;:&quot;txtMedia250e&quot;,&quot;componentType&quot;:&quot;wysiwyg.viewer.components.WPhoto&quot;,&quot;styleId&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;skin&quot;:&quot;wysiwyg.viewer.skins.photo.NoSkinPhoto&quot;,&quot;display&quot;:&quot;block&quot;,&quot;marginLeft&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;marginRight&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:0.46,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;//static.wixstatic.com/media/eb8a98_b8c232cfeaa74532b91f1b4fcf3520ca.png&quot;,&quot;isFullSize&quot;:false}" /><span class="cke_image_px_indicator">​</span><span class="cke_image_resizer" title="Click and drag to resize">​</span></span></div></div><div style="text-align: center;">Zoe's&nbsp;selfie&nbsp;(<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a dataquery="#txtMedia13li" href="https://www.blogger.com/null">source</a></span>)</div><br /><div><br /></div><div>Essena O’Neill is a model with over 250+ subscribers on YouTube and over 700k+ followers in Instagram. In her online video (2015) she explains about how she hated her ‘online persona’ and talks about how her online life is ‘fake’ and she got all caught up on it. Her story has opened up topics on identity, body image and sexism as she mentions when she was 12, she would look up models and how to become one and she would compare herself to them. She didn’t care if it was artificial, she just wanted to be valued and be like them and thought it’s through a large following in social media that she will feel ‘accepted’. All the things she has mentioned equates to exposing herself as ‘the perfect image’ and how people will only follow you if you become the person they want you to become rather than yourself.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Xe1Qyks8QEM/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Xe1Qyks8QEM?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></div><br /><div class="cke_widget_wrapper cke_widget_block cke_image_nocaption cke_widget_selected" data-cke-display-name="image" data-cke-filter="off" data-cke-widget-id="0" data-cke-widget-wrapper="1" tabindex="-1"><div class="align-center cke_widget_element" data-cke-widget-data="%7B%22hasCaption%22%3Afalse%2C%22src%22%3A%22http%3A%2F%2Fimg.youtube.com%2Fvi%2FXe1Qyks8QEM%2Fmqdefault.jpg%22%2C%22alt%22%3A%22%22%2C%22width%22%3A%22470%22%2C%22height%22%3A%22264%22%2C%22lock%22%3Atrue%2C%22align%22%3A%22center%22%2C%22classes%22%3Anull%7D" data-cke-widget-keep-attr="0" data-cke-widget-upcasted="1" data-widget="image"><span class="cke_image_resizer_wrapper"><span class="cke_image_px_indicator">​</span><span class="cke_image_resizer" title="Click and drag to resize">​</span></span></div></div><div style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;(The re-upload of the video)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>But even just owning an account can girls still receive hate. Research (<span style="font-style: italic;">Bonanno &amp; Hymel, 2013</span>) shows that 57% affected from cyber bullying were females in the average age of 14.2 years. According to Blackery (2013) she thinks that girls get more criticized than boys online and the worse part is the anonymity factor where people can hide behind the screen and say whatever they want and it’s somewhat true as according to the Daily Mail (2015) girls aged 11 – 13 now feel more under pressure and are more likely to worry.</div><div><br /></div><div>Fletcher (2013) thinks that the hate comments that females get on the Internet is based on appearance and targeting their self-esteem hence why it’s hard for girls and young women to brush it off. Sophie stated that in real life, she couldn’t talk about her online problems to her peers as she thinks that she will be judged. Stephen &amp; Wilcox (2013) stated that our self-esteem can be enhanced through the use of social media and it can also determine our behavior. This shows that the feedback that young girls can receive can affect their mental health and how it could be pressured and feel less about themselves just through their interactions online and how they want the world to see them.</div><div><br /></div><div>A resolution for this is that young girls need to be presented with someone who can motivate them to be themselves rather than to be an image of what they want to be as well as the awareness of the existence of online support networks as according to Mehta &amp; Atreja (2015) users communicate with other people who may have experience the same issues and at the same time, being anonymous about it.</div><div><br /></div><div>Therefore, young girls needs to presented with relatable role models and be supported with people they trust offline and online in order to prevent the stigma affecting their mental health.</div><div><br /></div><div>====================================================================================</div><div><br /></div><div>So this was my essay (or at least the edited version due to privacy reasons) but this just shows that it is possible to use YouTube for your homework ON A UNIVERSITY LEVEL and somewhat get away with it.</div><div><br /></div><div>But why did I tackle this topic?</div><div><br /></div><div>The reason is because it gives a bigger scope on how girls are portrayed online and how it impacts us in some way. You may not see it but there are times when people give the wrong impression on how girls show themselves in media and online as they take their persona in a literal sense rather than something else.</div><div><br /></div><div>I know because it has happened to me!</div><div><br /></div><div>Prior to when I was forced to delete my channel, I was told that the way I presented myself as this punk, badass, opinionated person isn't what they want me to be and that I should maintain a certain image of '<span style="font-style: italic;">innocent</span>', '<span style="font-style: italic;">sweet</span>' and '<span style="font-style: italic;">cute</span>'. It was annoying and it hurts as they didn't want me to express myself in a different image which made me feel like myself&nbsp;and&nbsp; more on the image they wanted me to be got me bullied!&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>Girls are given the pressure to maintain innocent and be a role model to perfection where in reality, it's not like that. We don't want to be this 'figure' of perfect.</div><div><br /></div><div>But what are your thoughts on my little essay that I wrote for my uni assignment? I hope you like it.

One of the videos I was forced to put down was a video about '<i>Why I hated my preliminary exams</i>' as SiTC 2014 was happening, <i>TRXYE</i> by Troye Sivan&nbsp;and '<i>Better Late than Never</i>' by Stuck in Your Radio&nbsp;has been released ON THE SAME DAY&nbsp;and Season 8 of Doctor Who just premiered on TV! That's basically it, besides the fact I ranted about how hard my subjects are. Another video I was forced to take down was me singing 'Narda' by Kamikazee during an event '<i>on location</i>' and lastly, I was forced to take down a video about how you give revenge to your ex by showing you are better off without him during the healing process.

(Yes... a full year!) And I can't believe it has been that long as I didn't know that I would be still doing this till this very day! Sure, the production ended up becoming '1 post per month' but hey, it's better than nothing right?<br /><br />So... after 1 year of blogging, how did it change my life?<br /><br />Well, besides the fact that this blog helped me express myself through words, it was this blog that help me get into the uni that I'm in (I'm really serious here). Reason being is because the Communications Degree is more than just playing with a camera, it's also being able to tell a story or write stuff. TBH, it was really useful in one of my assessment task in one of my uni class. Another reason is because I was in a portfolio day where I have to give my creative works for the same university and the only thing they were mostly interested was my blog. Like screw the photographs, songs, creative writing and all that, all we want is the blog! (Out of all the questions they asked me, the question regarding the use of blogs was the hardest)<br /><br />So why did I started my blog in the first place last year? Well... to be completely honest, I was sent home after some 'issues' that occurred the day before. It wasn't my fault btw but my school thought it was safer if I was sent home (so yay... catch up homework and leaving your stuff in your locker without even knowing). I just got bored when I was home so I thought, why not blog! I was inspired by <a href="https://georgesheppard.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">George Sheppard's blog</a>&nbsp;on wordpress.<br /><br />Either way, whether you follow me, read my entries or whatevs, thanks for reading my entries and being part of my story. It really means a lot. This blog is a lifestyle blog with a bit of random stuff but this is the closest thing to originality that people actually enjoy. Kinda odd thou that I started it on April Fools day but who gives a crap!<br /><br />So I can't wait to write more entries for you and hope to see you soon and thank you for being with me for an entire year!<br /><br />So my name is Cutiejea and this has been my<i>&nbsp;Life out of the Camera</i>!<br /><br />PS: Feel free to follow me in my other social media accounts:<br /><br /><ul><li><b><a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/cutiejea1" target="_blank">YouTube</a></b></li><li><a href="https://www.twitter.com/Cutiejea1" target="_blank"><b>Twitter</b></a></li><li><b><a href="https://www.cutiejea.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">Tumblr</a></b></li><li><b><a href="http://www.instagram.com/Cutiejea" target="_blank">Instagram</a></b></li><li><b><a href="http://www.wattpad.com/Cutiejea" target="_blank">Wattpad</a></b></li><li><b><a href="http://www.soundcloud.com/Cutiejea" target="_blank">Soundcloud</a></b></li><li><b><a href="http://www.500px.com/Cutiejea" target="_blank">500px</a></b></li><li><b><a href="http://www.cutiejea.wix.com/Cutiejea" target="_blank">My Website</a></b></li></ul>Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-13072931942650200482016-03-15T17:20:00.001-07:002016-07-04T06:45:43.965-07:00Becoming Trash for UndertaleBefore I start, I want to give out a spoiler warning as Undertale is a game best played blind (meaning you need to have NO INFO about the game mechanics/story/etc) so if you haven't played it or the YouTuber you're watching hasn't finished playing it *coughs* Dan and Phil *coughs* DON'T READ THIS POST (unless u don't give a damn)<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EFYDoaTqVHc/VtzTvEKaVuI/AAAAAAAABMk/xgrfc6ayQ88/s1600/Undertale%252Bprepare%252Bto%252Bcry%252Bedition%252Byep%252Bspoiler%252Bwarning_87821a_5744090.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EFYDoaTqVHc/VtzTvEKaVuI/AAAAAAAABMk/xgrfc6ayQ88/s640/Undertale%252Bprepare%252Bto%252Bcry%252Bedition%252Byep%252Bspoiler%252Bwarning_87821a_5744090.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br />Sup guys, Cutiejea here!<br /><br />So recently (well, late February) I got into Undertale and I swear to God that game is making me rethink about how I play games. I'm serious, right now... I'm too scared to do the genocide route as I heard once it's done, I live with those sins forever.<br /><br />I'm not saying that 'Undertale beats any other game out there' or 'Undertale beats any other fandom out there'. All I'm saying is that I've become addicted about the effect that game has caused me and it's a good thing as it changed my perspective on video game tropes and conventions.<br /><br />But this game... I've became trash under 4 days (4 DAYS!!!).<br /><br />Here is the previous list that I used be trashed for:<br /><ol><li>Phandom</li><li>Muse</li><li>Shamy</li><li>Nowhere Boys</li><li>Sheppard</li></ol><div>Here is the list now:</div><div><ol><li>Phandom</li><li>Muse</li><li><b><i>Undertale</i></b></li><li>Shamy</li><li>Nowhere Boys</li></ol><div>It first started when I watched Dan and Phil played it in YouTube then I bought the game because it seemed fun! So I got the game and watched a few YouTube videos so I can get a basic introduction on what Undertale is about. Also, I watched Game Theory's episode about Sans and that got me hooked. Then after 2 hours of playing, I got the soundtrack because the music is very good. My fave songs are <i>Home, Heartache, Another Medium, Undertale, Hopes and Dreams </i>and<i> Megalovania</i>. Then there were the post in Tumblr and 4 hours in the game, I've became trash.</div><div><br /></div><div>This brought me to the point where I wanted where I wanted to write a Charisk (Chara x Frisk) fan fic on wattpad!</div></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hKY6q-9bfpE/VtzVO_5w2BI/AAAAAAAABMw/JnwNZLA7h7U/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2016-03-07%2Bat%2B12.10.48%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="248" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hKY6q-9bfpE/VtzVO_5w2BI/AAAAAAAABMw/JnwNZLA7h7U/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2016-03-07%2Bat%2B12.10.48%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div><div>First chapter is out and more soon to come (<a href="https://www.wattpad.com/story/63650923-fallen-a-charisk-undertale-fan-fiction" target="_blank">Wattpad link</a>)<br /><br />But Undertale, I have to say, it's now one of my most fave games so far... even better than Pokemon (and I swear, I'm a total nerd for the GAMES [not the tv series]) and defeated my love for Skyrim (A game I played for 70 hours back in 2014/15!). Undertale will make you laugh, cry and think about your actions when controlling Frisk that right now, I'm now having second thoughts on doing the genocide route.<br /><br />But what caused me to become Trash for Undertale is the idea of multiple interpretations of what could have happened in the game, what could have happened next and so on. Also, you can create original characters that can also have an effect to the new plot line or you can put in more character development between the main cast that it creates new depth into the story. One of my fave tumblr blogs doing this is <i>Ask Frisk and Company</i> where its a fan fiction mixed with audience participation, meaning, our questions and ask to the blog can have an effect on the plot line.&nbsp;<a href="http://askfriskandcompany.tumblr.com/tagged/askfriskandcompanyupdate/chrono/" target="_blank">(link to the chronological order of the story</a>&nbsp;[part till we're introduced to Lucinda])<br /><br />If you want a quick summary of the story, click <a href="http://cutiejea.tumblr.com/post/141086041386/a-quick-summary-of-ask-frisk-and-company" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br />Another is the shipping. Anything can be shipped in the game. We have the usual ships, Chara and Frisk (Charisk), Sans and Toriel (Soriel), Alphys and Undyne (???). But we also have the odd ships which I accept like Monster Kid and Frisk, Mettaton and Papyrus, Papyrus and Undyne. Basically, if you can prove that your ship can be legit, then congratulations, it's accepted.<br /><br />And the best part is the original music/mash-ups/parodies/covers the community has created. I have a few faves but they're really good (especially the ones who uses Megalovania as the main beat for their songs)<br /><br />The reason why I've became trash for Undertale in a short amount of time is something I'm still trying to figure out. I guess it's because the game is open to interpretation that the creative side of me wants to know more and wants to jump in into the action. I can just say 'Undertale is just a game and I enjoyed it' but the game broke gaming conventions where music is built to match the scene and the idea of saving and restarting can also affect the gameplay dialogue. It's breaking the rules on how video games work, reinventing the format on how it's play and changing how we experience playing video games. Normally, we play games like 'you need to do this' or 'you need to kill this dude' and it's mostly a linear timeline. Undertale is also a linear timeline but it's more on a hierarchy timeline as each action can alter anything that can happen. This is what got me interested into the game, that one small step can change anything. The story can reach many ending and you are given the ability to expand on those endings and create new stories based on your experiences.<br /><br />Undertale is not just a video game, it's a game where you have room to expand the Undertale Universe as the characters you meet and encounter will leave a significant bond as you play the main game. To me, Undertale is Minecraft meets Skyrim, a game where your actions creates an impact on your character but you can build on the story further (hence why I'm writing a fan fic of the game in Wattpad).<br /><br />Toby Fox, if you are reading this (which I highly doubt you are), thank you for creating a game where our actions in the game creates an impact in the game and also creating a story where we can expand on. This game has to be the best game in 2016 (unless Pokemon Sun and Moon gives a better impression).<br /><br />So if you haven't played the game, I suggest you should as it's a fun game to play and it may be a bit challenging but the story in it will inspire you to create an extended plot line on what happens next. And the soundtrack is really good so I also suggest listening to that as well!<br /><br />My name is Cutiejea and this has been <i>Life out of the Camera</i><br /><i><br /></i>(PS: I made a Undertale fan animation using plotagon and it's arriving this Friday so here is the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5Z7CDWHvtM" target="_blank">link</a>)</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-18488949124732818632016-02-08T02:26:00.000-08:002016-07-04T06:44:47.218-07:00Growing UpSup guys, Cutiejea here!<br /><br />So, if you subscribed to my channel or any of my social medias, you may have heard that I'm now officially 18 years old! This basically means I'm an adult in my family and in the Philippines but in Australia, the official adult age is 21 (18 is the legal age but everyone is more inclined to 21 years old being the official adult age).<br /><br />Here is the video talking about what I've learned in 18 years of existence (Uploaded on my birthday):<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zlHOi44uI28/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/zlHOi44uI28?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></div><br /><br />So it's been a few days since my time as an adult and I have to say... it kinda boring (but how should I know, it's still my holidays!)<br /><br />Today's blog thou is about growing up and how there are some parts of your life you tend to keep, move on and decide if it should be part of you or not.<br /><br />Ever since I reached this point in life, I've been doing a bit of spring cleaning within myself and started doing stuff that I never knew I was capable on doing (I don't &lt;bleeping&gt; care if it's summer). For starters, I've decided to be a total 'girl' and start to buy my own clothes for university, my commitments on learning the ukulele is still growing strong and there are other parts of my life that I've first considered odd for me to do but I did wind up enjoying it (An example is me swimming in the beach where most of the time, I would never enjoy it! Now, as long it's in Bondi, I will consider swimming with a bodyboard).<br /><br />But there are also parts of me that I feel like letting go. An example this this old website I made. Sure, I may keep it running but I have thoughts of deleting the site and updating around 20 videos, removing the link in the description. Another is my love for gaming. It's not my fault, my laptop can no longer run the games made these days since it's 32 bit!<br /><br />But even if I feel 'grown up', there will be times where I will act like a kid and it will piss off others since they expect me to be more mature and how can I since my 2 of my role models are like 28 - 29 years old and they act like kids!<br /><br />I hate that the idea of growing up is for you to be 'very mature' and 'not make any mistakes' or 'be conformed to society' and all that jazz and it annoys me since I still want to goof off! I still want to make silly mistakes that people consider to be 'You cant do that since you're 18!'. Does it look like I give a flying &lt;bleep&gt;?!<br /><br />I know there will be a time where I will have to let go of being a kid and just grow up but if you do lose your childhood, you will lose the part of you that makes you happy, that tiny part of you that clings you to what made you... well YOU! And this is where doing what you love comes in as if you still have that tiny 1% of your childhood in your life, then you know that you're not becoming a brainless sheep. Yes, there will be times where you will have to let go of things or decide if it should still be part of your life but in the end, whatever you decide will be the cause on how you feel about life in the future.<br /><br />I end this blog post with a quote from Dan Howell from <i>The Amazing Book is not on Fire</i> '<i>I guess I just want to say, this thing we've created - is ephemeral</i>*' (Ephemeral = Momentary).<br /><br />So you guys have the choice if you want to grow up, remain a kid forever or do both! For me, it's both but I also have to mature in order to survive but I still need to retain that part of me that kept me going which is my innocence.<br /><br />So my name is Cutiejea and this has been my <i>Life Out of the Camera</i>.Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-8137054836881466232016-01-13T02:28:00.001-08:002016-07-04T06:44:14.221-07:00New Years ResolutionSup guys, Cutiejea here!<br /><br />Happy NEW YEAR!!! It's finally 2016... the year where.... I go to university... yay?<br /><br />But anywho, how is the first few weeks of 2016 treating you? Got any new gear? Any ambitions/goals or are you just starting school (just saying, years kindy to 10 is fine, just rock up and do average but year 11, a shitstorm of stress will be impacted on day one and will not stop till year 12).<br /><br />But anywho, I want to talk about New Years Resolutions and what they mean to me.<br /><br />For most people, NYR are tiny goals they want to achieve in under a year like '<i>Try new things</i>' or '<i>dump boyfriend</i>' or '<i>tell parents how you really feel</i>'. For some, it's doing something... somewhat impossible or really extreme that they want to try out for one day like '<i>Get drunk for first time</i>' or '<i>skydiving</i>' or '<i>become a rock band</i>'. And for some, it's tiny improvements in their life like '<i>Get better grades</i>' or '<i>Not get a grade of C</i>' (btw, that was my 2015 NYR for year 12... Totally failed that one but I did get Band 4 in Advance English). And just saying, I'm not judging you or anything, I think New Years Resolutions are good, it gives us something to do in between the days of work and school.<br /><br />And most of the time, they end up being unachieved or piles up into more complex stuff<br /><br />Example: It will start off '<i>Get drunk for the first time</i>' and soon end up '<i>Give up alcohol</i>' a year later<br /><br />But for me, I treat my New Years Resolution as a Bucket List.<br /><br />That's right! My goals for the year, I want to treat them like '<i>How I want to live/improve my life for the long run</i>' so doing stuff like '<i>Skydiving</i>' or '<i>Getting Drunk</i>', both may not be good thing to add on my list (however, there is this wine I tasted back in NYE in 2014 that I want to get my hands on again).<br /><br />So in the spirit of this post and the new year, I would love to share you some of my New Years Resolutions and explain how it will help improve my life for the long run.<br /><br /><b>1. Improve YouTube channel content</b><br /><br />My channel has reached 200+ subscribers and 10k views by Christmas and I want to let those numbers grow. I'm not saying I want to have 100k subs by 2017 but I just want to improve my content so that I can learn how to make better things. I made the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTGl-tKJM9M" target="_blank">ERB Phan Rap Battle</a> video using 2 giant pieces of green cloth I both in Lincraft for $40 (Ebay is cheaper, I know, my folks just have trust issues on online delivery).<br /><br />This is where my university studies come in as my course is Bachelor of Communications, majoring in 'Media Arts Production' in where I will be learning how to used advanced equipment and the teachers will be giving professional editing tips (no... Phil Lester is not my teacher... but I wish he was!)<br /><br /><b>2. Learn an Instrument</b><br /><br />In 2015, I befriended Sophie (AKA: <a href="https://twitter.com/Amazingdogpie" target="_blank">AmazingDogpie</a>) via Twitter as on the day I followed her, she followed me back so DM was possible between the both of us. From there, after my HSC ended and TATINOF was being held in London (and I heard she was going), we began to talk to each other throughout the entire November.<br /><br />One of our conversation topics was 'What instrument can you play' and the fact that Sophie can play more than just the Ukulele made me feel overwhelmed as all I can do is sing. Not only that, I also started <a href="https://twitter.com/PhandomAUS" target="_blank">Phandom Aus/NZ</a> on twitter and 3 of my friends who help run the account plays an instrument and it just made me feel worse!<br /><br />I want to learn an instrument but there were just 2 problems:<br /><br /><ol><li>I'm a lefty (like Dan!), meaning not many instruments will accomodate for my needs (and if they do... it will cost more)</li><li>Lessons are expensive in Australia (and there is no way in hell my dad will pay for them, not to mention, take me there!)</li></ol><br />My first plan was have vocal lessons again but my folks won't go for it. Plan 2 was learn how to play guitar (my brother used to have lessons till he gave up after 1 year) but it's too much work and I think I may need an actual instructor rather than my iPad to teach me (I do know how to play the basic chords thou so that's a start!)<br /><br />So plan 3: why not something smaller! I'm now having thoughts on buying my ukulele.... What? Sophie said in her <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VaBU5SkNrk" target="_blank">Q&amp;A</a> that it's not that hard and she learned how to play in under a year so it's probably not that bad! Plus it cost $36 in stores!<br /><b><br /></b><b>3. Learn how to Drive</b><br /><b><br /></b>Whenever I go to Facebook, I get intimidated when I discovered 5 of my friends have their 'P's' before 2015 ended and it made me feel bad as I need to learn how to drive... Fast... in a legal pace!<br /><br />I checked my learner's license and it said that I have 3 years till it expires and 3 years is how long my Uni course runs. I need to get my 'P's' before I graduate or else I have to take the test again! I can't go through that again so whenever I can, I have to buckle up and drive!<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">++++</div><br />So those 3 are some of my New Year's Resolutions for the year and hopefully, I can pull them off. I can share you more but they're more personal so I don't think it's a good idea to share them. But as you can see, these resolutions are stuff that may improve my life and can actually be put into use in IRL and online situations.<br /><br />So what we can all learn from this is that, treat your resolutions as a bucket list and pick things that may actually be useful in the future. You can call me lame but picking stuff like this but I want to think of the benefits it can provide for me.<br /><br />So my name is Cutiejea and this has been life out of the camera!Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-68858640509024935132015-12-16T17:26:00.001-08:002016-07-04T06:43:27.094-07:00The ATAR and my past and futureSo... I'm back and this time, for a blog about the ATAR (aka: the rank needed just to have a guaranteed entry to university) and how the missing experiences from my past is somehow reflected to my rank. For this blog, I will not say the names of the universities as I may end up in trouble.<br /><br />So at 9 am (or for my case... 8:57 am), I got my rank and before all of this, people tell me 'Go get that good ATAR' or 'a High ATAR = Better future'. I'm not joking, when you reach like late year 7 - early year 8, everyone will brainwash you saying getting that high rank equals happy life and from there, that kinda got stuck in my mind.<br /><br />Yesterday, I got my marks and I went to 5 ATAR calculators to predict my rank. All said 63.70. Today, I got 62.90.<br /><br />So when I got my rank... I'm not saying it's a bad rank but it's decent enough to get me into ONE university. I'm not joking... out of god knows how many universities are there, I can only get into one... well, I can do private college but... best not to comment about that.<br /><br />My grades thou were decent... I mean, Band 4's and 1 Band 5... that's amazing but if your subjects are low scaling and had unsupportive people who tell you '<i>YouTube is where rapist/strangers can find you</i>' back in 2008 before you even made an account and had literally have no idea what you wanted to be till the end of year 11, that's when you know you kinda fucked up your life.<br /><br />I didn't know I wanted to work in media, my ENTIRE family were pushing me to the teaching degree and whenever I ask stuff like 'How do you make a website' cuz someone in your family made their own successful website, they ended up avoiding it. And again, I was given an intervention about me being banned from going into YouTube because I watch 'Who killed Captain Rockhopper' and a bunch of Club Penguin fan fic videos that they think that working in media/doing something creative means rape or something bad, you know that there is something missing in your life... like you haven't found who you truly are in the required age. Due to this, I did subjects irrelevant to the course I actually wanted.<br /><br />If I can go back in time, these are the subjects I would have done:<br /><br /><ul><li>Advanced English</li><li>Music 1</li><li>Design and Technology</li><li>SOR 1U (I was from a catholic school so this is mandatory)</li><li>VET Entertainment</li><li>Visual Art</li></ul><div>At least with these subjects, I could have received MORE bonus points than the subjects I have now.</div><div><br /></div><div>And to everyone just going to say to me 'But what's done is done' and all that bullshit, I just want to say shut up for one second as there are many things I wanted to do in the past that I was forbidden or unselected to experience. I could have created a YouTube channel in 2008 or made my own website blog in the age of 7 but I was sheltered because my family thinks some rapist will find me or I will end up dead.</div><div><br /></div><div>Sometimes, I wonder if everyone was just goddam supportive about this... like they would just tell me how they made these things and so on instead of pulling me away from this because I bet, when I enter university, everyone has high quality DSLR with long experience while I'm just the girl who records stuff with an iPad!</div><div><br /></div><div>So overall, what I want to say to the people who are about to embark on the same journey, my tip of advice for you is to fully figure out what you want to do or who you want to be before year 11 starts. If you wanted to make a youtube channel at the age of 6... GO FOR IT since Troye Sivan did it and he's now a famous pop star! Want to be an adventurer, do it!<br /><br />I know I can't blame my past for all of this but I would have been nice if I had some support in a young age rather than people worrying that I'll get rape just because I go to a website where I can watch videos.</div><div><br /></div><div>Overall... just do what you love doing, if people are pushing you away, then just push forward as if someone told me this in the past, then maybe my future would have been very different.</div><div><br /></div><div>This is Cutiejea and this is life out of the camera.</div>Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-54699957238404906792015-11-07T22:29:00.000-08:002016-07-04T06:43:01.797-07:00Traditional Vs YouTubeHey, Sorry when I didn't post anything on October, I just have final exams (HSC) that it occupied the entire October so I didn't have the time to post anything.<br /><br />Before I start, I want to say... these opinions are based from someone who wants to do Media and Communications as a university course and based of opinions and post from people on twitter, tumblr and youtube.<br /><br />But anywho, this is post is something that a few YouTubers (Like <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPpBlDaKM_o" target="_blank">Game Theory</a>&nbsp;and Pewdiepie [Pewds has many vids about this that linking will be hard]) tackle and that is 'Media Bias' and how Traditional Media attacks the YouTube community just to gain clicks.<br /><br />Watch Game Theory's video based on this topic as it explains this better than me:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tPpBlDaKM_o/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tPpBlDaKM_o?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></div><br /><br />First of all, WHY THE &lt;BLEEP&gt; ARE THEY ATTACKING?! Do they know that posting something nice will give them the same amount of clicks (probably). Almost every article involving the youtube community always involve something hurtful that we hardly see see anything nice.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3zHZ-9Eda5A/Vj7RqpOSiiI/AAAAAAAABIg/ZXNaFSw0SF8/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B3.37.45%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="73" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3zHZ-9Eda5A/Vj7RqpOSiiI/AAAAAAAABIg/ZXNaFSw0SF8/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B3.37.45%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div>- This was from <a href="http://au.eonline.com/news/686923/18-moments-from-the-2015-teen-choice-awards-that-made-us-feel-super-old" target="_blank">Channel E</a>'s website<br /><br />Currently, the traditional media have been targeting Pewdiepie, The Gaming Community and a few well known YouTubers like Tyler Oakley, taking things step by step but now, they have attack the big guns. Thats right people, Traditional Media is now attacking the Phandom<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vO90DKnnOJE/Vj7TEHqEhEI/AAAAAAAABIs/MbSH5C3IURM/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B3.42.59%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="160" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vO90DKnnOJE/Vj7TEHqEhEI/AAAAAAAABIs/MbSH5C3IURM/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B3.42.59%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div>- <a href="http://nypost.com/2015/08/27/these-self-important-youtube-idiots-are-destroying-culture/" target="_blank">New York Post</a> stating that doing challenges with these items are nothing but in total actuality, they are difficult af.<br /><br />So recently in the Phandom (the group im in) on November 8 (around 6 - 9 am AEST Daylight saving time) via Twitter and Tumblr, there was an article from the Sunday Times (UK) where Dan and Phil were interviewed for their book and tour.<br /><br />Havent read it? Here is the link: <a href="http://charlottelorina.tumblr.com/post/132758741276/heard-people-couldnt-see-the-article-so-thought" target="_blank"><b>x</b></a><br /><br />This was the heading and description of the given post:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-I_M4FpJaA7g/Vj7UHdWNJaI/AAAAAAAABI0/ShqkrS5JdyY/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B2.48.48%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="176" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-I_M4FpJaA7g/Vj7UHdWNJaI/AAAAAAAABI0/ShqkrS5JdyY/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B2.48.48%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div><br />By the time I read this, I thought it was finally time when they appreciate the youtube community by using the power of the Phandom to help merge the two worlds (Which is my goal in the future, to merge both traditional and online). By reading that heading and description, it shows how traditional media are going to say/ask nice things about them and the YouTube culture itself.<br /><br />But reading the article... we were lied.<br /><br />Unlike the other hate articles where they legitimately start off with the hate in the heading then continue on throughout the article, the heading and description here... it was clickbate! It was a huge lie to let all the members in the phandom go and read it for 'click' and soon enough, it was filled with hate and lies and a bunch of misunderstandings and shit that it cause a shitstorm via Twitter and Tumblr (mostly amongst the popular tumblr and twitter users).<br /><br />Lets start off with the fact that they think that we as fans like Dan and Phil just because of their appearance and want to meet them just for bragging rights!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MCgNw73LlzE/Vj7WpOWqd_I/AAAAAAAABJA/kX_hHhKWmPc/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B2.56.19%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="58" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MCgNw73LlzE/Vj7WpOWqd_I/AAAAAAAABJA/kX_hHhKWmPc/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B2.56.19%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kyAgN4NHUuw/Vj7Wt3YTisI/AAAAAAAABJI/Bd4A1buHvaw/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B3.57.34%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="68" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kyAgN4NHUuw/Vj7Wt3YTisI/AAAAAAAABJI/Bd4A1buHvaw/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B3.57.34%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div><br />Can we start off by saying that we don't watch Dan and Phil just because of their looks and appearances. Sure, we tend to type 'HAVE MY BABIES' in every photo we seen but it's not like that! We love the two vloggers because they save lives! They actually want to emit positivity throughout their videos!<br /><br />THEY EVEN MENTIONED IT ON BBC BREAKFAST!!!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/-efQAoUuov0/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-efQAoUuov0?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></div><br />Not to mention about the story when a <a href="http://www.hpenews.com/life/teen-cancer-survivor-gets-to-meet-dan-and-phil/article_e82f4cb0-498d-11e5-b008-af7f83388b1e.html" target="_blank">cancer patient watches Dan and Phil</a> to keep her strong due to her ordeal! (BTW, Im glad for this article being posted as it doesn't backlash youtubers in general and shows how YouTube isn't all bad at al!)<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3sfVFNo_jhQ/Vj7YSJl5DdI/AAAAAAAABJU/vBiUOrPQ8HU/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B2.21.33%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="330" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3sfVFNo_jhQ/Vj7YSJl5DdI/AAAAAAAABJU/vBiUOrPQ8HU/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B2.21.33%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br />And there are stories on how Phil's hugs helped a girl stop cutting herself all over tumblr back in 2014!<br /><br />So see, we don't love them for their looks or their hotness but rather from their influence in our lives.<br /><br />Next is the fact that the interviewer asked about their sexuality... I'm not joking:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sqEE4uClFds/Vj7ZB58HujI/AAAAAAAABJc/lj7DpvR-kDs/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B2.54.36%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="104" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sqEE4uClFds/Vj7ZB58HujI/AAAAAAAABJc/lj7DpvR-kDs/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B2.54.36%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div><br />Before I continue, let me state a rule from the Phandom... DO NOT ASK ABOUT THEIR PERSONAL LIVES!!! This rule was placed due to the 'Adrian Incident' which I will not talk about since talking about this issue will also break another rule in the Phandom. These rules are in place so that we don't recreate the dark times (aka: 2012) and that Dan and Phil will remain comfortable creating content for us.<br /><br />Now, the interviewer, Josh Glancy (or Mr Glancy) literally asked if they were gay and this is an all new low as NOBODY SHOULD HAVE EVER DONE THAT!!! Worse of all was when Dan and Phil push away from answering to that, he still puts it in the article! WTF!? Dude, if the boys say 'NO', you don't &lt;bleep&gt; post the result as it's an insult to their privacy.<br /><br />Worse part of all of this was he mentions how much they make in their videos:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DVvqLpQ4RrQ/Vj7aOvU2I6I/AAAAAAAABJo/FVjBID0aFR4/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B2.59.46%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="104" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DVvqLpQ4RrQ/Vj7aOvU2I6I/AAAAAAAABJo/FVjBID0aFR4/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B2.59.46%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div>I don't know about the goals for this post but why the hell did you ask that?! What's the point? If you want to accomodate the phandom, why are you posting a finance question into this. Not to mention, we don't give a damn how much they make as we love them for who they are!<br /><br />And don't get me started when they brought back the Oreo thing and ad regulations:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GA75QtliLUY/Vj7bGenwB0I/AAAAAAAABJw/r8Zn20LAN94/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B4.17.17%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="126" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GA75QtliLUY/Vj7bGenwB0I/AAAAAAAABJw/r8Zn20LAN94/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B4.17.17%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div>I'm sorry, I thought the article was about their book, not how Dan and Phil make a living based on their videos and how they steal the girls hearts by their looks.<br /><br />This article lured us with a clickbait starter then full on degraded Dan and Phil and the Phandom throughout the article. Sure, there were a few good things but the rest was total bullshit and it was a stab in the heart! I guess the Phandom were used to Pewdiepie and the Gaming Community being the main target or protecting us while we just mind our own business. But now, when Traditional Media attacks the Phandom by targeting Dan and Phil and THE FAN GROUP itself, then shit is going down. I mean this is worse than the '<i>Adrian Incident</i>', the '<i>video incident</i>' (can't mention since it's also breaking the rules), and the '<i>Dandongs incident</i>' combined (For those who doesn't know, these incidents are the biggest incidents in Phandom history as it caused shitstorms and controversy and these incidents are the biggest moments in the phandom when the members adds new rules to their law book). Why attack Dan and Phil when they can play with fire and attack their fans as well, saying we are adoring them like how we adore Justin Beieber or One Direction where in reality, it's quite the opposite.<br /><br />So why is traditional media doing this? Is it because our generation is known as the 'Technological Generation'? Is it because there is a rise of a digital culture where playing League of Legends or Dota is now a sport? Is it because digital celebrities are earning almost the same amount of money that tv stars earn? Is it because we can no longer recognise who the &lt;bleep&gt; George Clooney or any other celebrity? Is it because teenagers are now becoming famous by doing stupid shit or creating random crap in their bedroom and others needed to work their butts of to make it big?<br /><br />The answer... YES.<br /><br />We are now in an era where everything is becoming easier and more convenient in our lives that traditional methods are about to be faded away or deleted. Think about it, <i>Fifty Shades of Grey</i> (still hate that book), was originally a Twilight fan fiction then soon became a book that sold a lot of copies that then turned into a movie! People can become digital celebrities just by talking on front of a camera, 5 Seconds of Summer and Justin Bieber became famous just for doing covers on YouTube and now having a big name in the music industry. MOBA (Muliplayer Online Battle Arenas) are now being counted as a sport that we no longer have to go outside just to get fit. Schools are allowing iPads as an educational tool. See, almost everything in our lives are becoming convenient for us that traditional things are now in the brink of extinction.<br /><br />Want more proof: Encyclopedias! I never own one and they hardly ever exist due to Google! Who still uses an actual dictionary if we have Dictionary.com or (once again) Google to help us define words. Not many people sell CD's anymore and just use iTunes or Spotify or YouTube to promote their music as it's much more convenient (and cheaper btw!). We now rather use email or Facebook just to communicate with our family and friends rather than using the telephone or writing an actual letter. Even newspapers are feeling the burn as they are now going for the online approach just to keep on running.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kIsSBGROrGo/Vj7iOFE_hGI/AAAAAAAABKA/E8aBnuLzxy4/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B4.48.06%2BPM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="166" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kIsSBGROrGo/Vj7iOFE_hGI/AAAAAAAABKA/E8aBnuLzxy4/s640/Screen%2BShot%2B2015-11-08%2Bat%2B4.48.06%2BPM.png" width="640" /></a></div>- This an article about how Fairfax media (An Australian Publishing Media company) is <a href="http://www.smh.com.au/business/rinehart-seeks-three-board-seats-20120618-20kdi.html" target="_blank">losing money</a>.<br /><br />See, this the reason why Traditional Media is attacking YouTube. When hardcopies of books, newspapers and educational needs started to go for the online approach, Traditional Media started to worry that digital celebrities will take over Hollywood. It's not our fault that we want role models who don't take drugs or never went to jail. We just someone we can relate to, not to be entertained by (well there is a bit of that but still).<br /><br />And one last thing... the reason why less people watch tv now is due to this reason: YOU'RE BORING!!!<br /><br />TV shows always bring back the same plot over and over again that it's lame, it's the same story and we all know how it ends. We don't want endless stories of this dude banging some chick! We don't want to see a perfect world and a perfect life anymore. The problem is, traditional media can only post that shit as it's the recommended standard due to media laws and regulations. Want to know why many people watch Game of Thrones? It's because the plot is different from anything else. There is incest, there is rape, there is dragons and all your fave characters and protagonist dies in every episode. That tv show defied the standards of TV, making it new hence why people watch it and became one of the most pirated tv shows of all time.<br /><br />So Traditional media, instead of hating on the YouTube community because nobody loves you anymore, maybe fix yourself first before attacking. Make yourself appealing for the viewers as your content is becoming shit and no one wants to see the same old crap as usual.<br /><br />And to the YouTube community, just keep doing your thing... just don't fall for the Traditional Media's traps as they are still finding ways to bring us down. We are the next generation of media and entertainment and we must be strong as the war isn't over. Just because they attacked one of the biggest YouTubers and communities doesn't mean it's over. They will find a new target and it's up to us to defend those who will soon be stuck between the crossfire.<br /><br />This is Cutiejea and this is Life out of the Camera!<br /><br />PS: I made a video about this so check it out if you want: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zr6Xj3PTqw4" target="_blank">x</a>&nbsp;(It will be out on November 13)Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-46731374198544307132015-09-19T16:24:00.001-07:002016-07-04T06:42:05.782-07:00GraduationHello my fellow readers,<br /><br />Today is a special kind of blog as it talks about the concept of graduation (basically, if you are reading this, you must already know that I'm a graduate).<br /><br />For me, I really wanted to graduate, like I really hated my final year of school due to issues that still to this point I'm not allowed to explain. To me, graduating means I'm close to get out of the year 2015 as it was the sh**iest year I ever had in my whole life. I was hoping that once I'm out... I'm out.<br /><br />But there was something different during my graduation that kinda make me cherish the remain moments of school. First was graduation day where everyone... (And I mean everyone) is all like '<i>I can't believe we're here!</i>' and my reaction is all like '<i>I know right!</i>'. Then you see your teachers in a special graduation robe that symbolises their educational status they've achieved and it varies from what University they came from.<br /><br />Then you have the usual graduation stuff... nothing new.<br /><br />Unlike the American system, there was no throwing of hats and such since we had no hats. Instead, we all walked (then ran) outside and more yelling of '<i>We Did It!</i>' (Something you would expect from <i>Dora the explorer</i>)<br /><br />Then came the formal.<br /><br />I will not talk about the preparation as that will be for a future video (its a funny story actually) but I will talk about what happened and what you need to be aware off.<br /><br />First, if you have an ex, you better find the FIRST available guy (or girl or friend) you see! It does not matter if what you get is your best friend or the weird guy at the back of the class or the guy you hardly know... you need to stay away from that ex (especially if how you and your ex met is through as dance partners). Reason being is that it will bring back those painful memories that you have spent months on trying to forget!<br /><br />Next... you better be prepared to dance for 4 - 6 hours straight! Yeah there are breaks but lets face it, you are one of those people who doesn't want to be left out!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vF14cz-T7JU/Vf1AOThnAxI/AAAAAAAABAc/t0hg7E9uHfs/s1600/flash-mob-o.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vF14cz-T7JU/Vf1AOThnAxI/AAAAAAAABAc/t0hg7E9uHfs/s1600/flash-mob-o.gif" /></a></div><br />Basically, I just danced like a sim!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s0SS7w_LudU/Vf1A4c8dRsI/AAAAAAAABAk/aiuttFlfDOQ/s1600/dil%2Bdance.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s0SS7w_LudU/Vf1A4c8dRsI/AAAAAAAABAk/aiuttFlfDOQ/s320/dil%2Bdance.gif" width="320" /></a></div><br />No matter how tired you are or dehydrated... YOU NEED TO DANCE!!! Who knows... you may find your inner disco... or robot... or chicken.<br /><br />Next is the fact that you will have to pray to all the deities in the world that you and anyone else ARENT WEARING THE SAME THING!!! And I don't mean just the dress, I mean the hair, the nails, shoes... the works. To be honest, a friend of mine and I were soo close on having the same hairstyle.<br /><br />Overall, my graduation week was great! I managed to enjoy the remaining moments of school and now... I have to work my butt off to pass the finals.<br /><br />My name is Cutiejea and this has been life out of the camera!Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-72794736280579963092015-07-06T03:02:00.001-07:002016-07-04T06:41:28.432-07:00I FINALLY got my Custom URL (And my tips on how to get it)Ok... first off, thanks for reading my previous blog. It's been great! Second, I decided to change from 2 blogs per month to ONE blog per month. Reason being is because I have a lot of things in my plate rn so I've decided that blogging needs to be cut down.<br /><div><br /></div><div>Ok... today, I want to talk about something that happened today... I just got my custom URL in youtube.</div><div><br /></div><div>This is a big deal since the requirements needed for a custom URL are:</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-PcOHMmdeCOE/VZpSPUkO3rI/AAAAAAAAA2M/eYTh2pWAL3A/s640/blogger-image-232230541.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-PcOHMmdeCOE/VZpSPUkO3rI/AAAAAAAAA2M/eYTh2pWAL3A/s640/blogger-image-232230541.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div>I have everything... but the 500 subscribers. So far, I only have 127 (Still greatful!)</div><div><br /></div><div>This is a big deal for me since this new channel is a reboot channel (I was forced to delete my old channel due to a misunderstanding!) I had to loose all of my old subscribers (and 25 of them are my old friends who I met in Minecraft servers!) and all of my old videos and my views and such that it kinda upseted me cuz I lost 3 years worth of work but knowing that I was granted to get a new URL means no more stupid randum letters!</div><div><br /></div><div>So how to get a Custom URL (w/o the 500 subs cuz lets face it, its really hard to get noticed in 2015!)</div><div><br /></div><div>1. Go to your advance settings on youtube (www.youtube.com/account_advanced)</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-6UsHljDBs9w/VZpSOVysReI/AAAAAAAAA2E/s1xcttY0l7Q/s640/blogger-image--621563449.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-6UsHljDBs9w/VZpSOVysReI/AAAAAAAAA2E/s1xcttY0l7Q/s640/blogger-image--621563449.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>If it says AT THE TOP that you are elegible for a custom URL... go for it!</div><div><br /></div><div>2. Change it to anything (Unless a legacy user or someone before you own it)</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ZN4Zio0-7xQ/VZpSMM08orI/AAAAAAAAA10/8DU8Vywlbq8/s640/blogger-image-749642943.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ZN4Zio0-7xQ/VZpSMM08orI/AAAAAAAAA10/8DU8Vywlbq8/s640/blogger-image-749642943.jpg" /></a></div><br /><br /></div><div>This one kinda upseted me cuz someone took my username back in 2005 (before I even got the name Cutiejea --- that was May 7 2007 at 9pm Philippine time... yeah, I remembered the exact date and time, even the website! It was Club Penguin... 3 months before Disney ruined it). So I had to use what my old channel had... which was Cutiejea1</div><div><br /></div><div>From there, your custom URL should look like what it says but choose wisely cuz changing it may be a hassle.</div><div><br /></div><div>So yeah... thats my simple steps on getting that Custom URL!</div><div><br /></div><div>Feel free to Subscribe to my channel as well (www.youtube.com/c/Cutiejea1)</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-jyDha0OyARM/VZpSNEREqEI/AAAAAAAAA18/qZl8pWZ9-10/s640/blogger-image--564052756.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-jyDha0OyARM/VZpSNEREqEI/AAAAAAAAA18/qZl8pWZ9-10/s640/blogger-image--564052756.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div>(BTW... Using my ipad rn to prove this is legit!)</div><div><br /></div><div>Please note you need to be uploading videos constantly just so you can get it (doesn't matter if its one a week to once a month... At the same time, you should not have any problems with copyright).</div><div><br /></div><div>And see you guys next month.</div><div><br /></div><div>My name is Cutiejea and this is my life out of the camera! See you guys next month!</div><div><br /></div><div>Cutiejea out!</div><div><br /></div>Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-57287652776707250732015-06-21T05:28:00.001-07:002016-07-04T06:40:58.883-07:00When I met SheppeardSorry for a long wait but due to huge things going on, I couldnt post. So due to this, this is the only thing I can provide for this month.<br /><div><br /></div><div>Today, I will be talking about Sheppard (the band)</div><div><br /></div><div>I first heard Sheppard due to a music homework where I had to listen to Geronimo and analyse the song and a few months later, I was forced to go to a Keith Urban concert and little did I know that they were the opening act. So from there, I bought a shirt, I went in line for their autograph and so on and got a photo with George!</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ed0dJE5Cq60/VYat8Myyf9I/AAAAAAAAAzU/5m3cIhCnfOA/s640/blogger-image--963344717.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ed0dJE5Cq60/VYat8Myyf9I/AAAAAAAAAzU/5m3cIhCnfOA/s640/blogger-image--963344717.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div>Same night, I made a vlog about it in my old channel and Amy Sheppard (lead female singer) commented on it</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-lTASfcnojKQ/VYawAoJESAI/AAAAAAAAAzk/rr0M5GvcNcw/s640/blogger-image-746707322.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-lTASfcnojKQ/VYawAoJESAI/AAAAAAAAAzk/rr0M5GvcNcw/s640/blogger-image-746707322.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Sheppard is like the first celebrity that helped built my channel. They are the ones who inspired and encouraged me to do song covers... Hence <i>Stupid Song Covers</i>.</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-IAfThZtSyEk/VYavAXtTXtI/AAAAAAAAAzc/cX5flybc4C0/s640/blogger-image--329185367.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-IAfThZtSyEk/VYavAXtTXtI/AAAAAAAAAzc/cX5flybc4C0/s640/blogger-image--329185367.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Yeah... And Sheppard was the band that made me and Maddison-ward-Music meet. It all started with a tweet and a youtube comment (just like how Dan and Phil met) and from there, we became online friends.</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-mQ_xTKFCfTU/VYaxQWB8ngI/AAAAAAAAA0I/RbId1tUQwlI/s640/blogger-image--403107558.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-mQ_xTKFCfTU/VYaxQWB8ngI/AAAAAAAAA0I/RbId1tUQwlI/s640/blogger-image--403107558.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-aVz26IQHN54/VYaxNEHnwzI/AAAAAAAAAzw/P3CxBfpplXI/s640/blogger-image--108184309.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-aVz26IQHN54/VYaxNEHnwzI/AAAAAAAAAzw/P3CxBfpplXI/s640/blogger-image--108184309.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>In conclusion, without Sheppard, the channel that I created wouldnt exist and me and Maddy wouldnt be friends. And just saying, I have been in 3 of their gigs, one was the Keith Urban tour, the Bombs away tour in July and last was the Vevo Lift Tour (yes.... I won that contest!)</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-hWsXI_lgSzU/VYaxPOGSAHI/AAAAAAAAA0A/0WHZ3RcbNro/s640/blogger-image--1171079342.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-hWsXI_lgSzU/VYaxPOGSAHI/AAAAAAAAA0A/0WHZ3RcbNro/s640/blogger-image--1171079342.jpg" /></a><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-QMSW3PnQlv0/VYaxOVGy9nI/AAAAAAAAAz4/Vx6RLRM5q7U/s640/blogger-image--20396942.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-QMSW3PnQlv0/VYaxOVGy9nI/AAAAAAAAAz4/Vx6RLRM5q7U/s640/blogger-image--20396942.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-BRaYspp6N5c/VYcn2zMiIDI/AAAAAAAAA0c/DEzv8IZyXXA/s640/blogger-image--641511929.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-BRaYspp6N5c/VYcn2zMiIDI/AAAAAAAAA0c/DEzv8IZyXXA/s640/blogger-image--641511929.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-2btucxPakU4/VYcn4ZanHZI/AAAAAAAAA0k/GtBSzAX7f3o/s640/blogger-image-1518115203.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-2btucxPakU4/VYcn4ZanHZI/AAAAAAAAA0k/GtBSzAX7f3o/s640/blogger-image-1518115203.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>So thats my sheppard exprience...

Improved a bitOk, so if you were my loyal to my old channel and follow me in my new channel, you guys should remember that my firsy vlog is about how much I HATED Vivid Sydney 2014 due to the crowds and a bunch of other variables.<br /><div><br /></div><div>This year however, I have to say... Vivid Sydney improved a bit. I went and it was almost similar to last year's one but less crowded (And I went on Day 1 or 2 so expectation is more crowded stuff),</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-kjtL_8cvb4I/VWq0MxB2oYI/AAAAAAAAAyM/p6hEExKDrGs/s640/blogger-image-1404499297.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-kjtL_8cvb4I/VWq0MxB2oYI/AAAAAAAAAyM/p6hEExKDrGs/s640/blogger-image-1404499297.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>First of all, Opera house... same but too much florecent lights. It wasnt that interesting since... I don't know, its just the same but less wow</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-xMrwqLeBuZE/VWq0VXCxzPI/AAAAAAAAAyk/QB_Z-6Ozwko/s640/blogger-image--97393601.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-xMrwqLeBuZE/VWq0VXCxzPI/AAAAAAAAAyk/QB_Z-6Ozwko/s640/blogger-image--97393601.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div>&nbsp;However, the rest of the night was amazing. If you love photography, Vivid Sydney is your chance for good photos. It's a glow in the dark wonderland but more aww, more interaction and improved crowd control. It was improved soo much that I managed to watch a light show on front of the Circular Quay train station (It's near McDonalds)</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-QVrzKQiM-XM/VWq0KSMTE9I/AAAAAAAAAyE/sa3HrN-hdB0/s640/blogger-image--13843724.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-QVrzKQiM-XM/VWq0KSMTE9I/AAAAAAAAAyE/sa3HrN-hdB0/s640/blogger-image--13843724.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div>But out of all the things that occured, I enjoyed taking photos using my iPhone (Yes... i'm still against the DSLR... But my cousin has a camera that defied my judgement).

I know, out of all the things I own or I can do... Im bored.<br /><div><br /></div><div>Let me explain...</div><div><br /></div><div>If you are still young, you dont want to waste your Sunday on studying (unless its super urgent) so you want to do other things like partying or have a massive multiplayer party or something. But for me, the only fun thing I can think to do right now is edit, fan art, fan fictions, youtube or single player offline sessions.</div><div><br /></div><div>It sucks... I know.</div><div><br /></div><div>I wanted to do many things like play or record or practice but part of my subconsiousness says that its boring and I just did that last Friday. I want to study but its a SUNDAY!!! Sunday is a break day (unless its urgent). I'm sooo bored right now...</div><div><br /></div><div>But heres the funny part... The thing that caused my boredom is the anouncement of the 'Phan-Prix' party in Mario Kart 8 where phandom members can race against Dan and Phil and the sad thing is... I dont have Mario Kart 8. Since I dont really have a reality... That multiplayer session is like being invited to the biggest party of the year... But you have no ticket to enter the club.</div><div><br /></div><div>So as social media ruins my life by live tweeting the event, I end up being bored. So bascially, once i hear someone having more fun than I... I get bored... Thats a really stupid explanation.</div><div><br /></div><div>But this isnt the first time that's happened. It happens a lot. One of my friends has this massive birthday party few months ago and I wasnt invited. I went on facebook accidentally and all my friends are posting all the amazing things that's happening. My fun Saturday just became 'why wasnt I invited, whats wrong with me' Saturday.</div><div><br /></div><div>Im assuming that there are a few people who gets bored this easily due to this reason, maybe others have different reasons.

What are the effects?<div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">One of the reasons why I love YouTube is because of the fact that its filled with creative people who can do amazing things with just a camera (before it turned into a medium where its filled with people who just do it for the cash). But what outstounds me the most is when the people who has been in this game of YouTube for a while does something that breaks the barriers between YouTube and Traditional media. This is why I started to make content, to someday be one of those people.</div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">But this is not about me wanting to do this but more on the people who I look up to or enjoyed watching for months or years and did something that gives me the feels of being proud for #TeamInternet.</div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">The first the announcement of Dan and Phil creating a book and having a worldwide tour (<i>The Amazing Tour/Book is not on fire</i>). Normally, Dan and Phil only tour within the UK, America and Europe (i think) and here in Australia, there aren't many Phan girls (both Dan and Phil), Philions (Phil only) or Danosaurs (Dan only) because of the lost hope.</div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Z2APfdUwR18/VR76rUtdkHI/AAAAAAAAAWg/Cam5srC-QdA/s640/blogger-image-1599414011.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Z2APfdUwR18/VR76rUtdkHI/AAAAAAAAAWg/Cam5srC-QdA/s640/blogger-image-1599414011.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><i>This tour changes everything</i>....

Yes, YouTubers are being respected as artist. When I was riding the airplane during my overseas adventure to Hong Kong, one of the albums I get to listen to are 2 Pentatonix albums. I've heard of Pentatonix this year but only because it was announced in the TV news that they won a grammy. And after watching a&nbsp;<i>Teens React to Pentatonix&nbsp;</i>by the Fine Brothers, I decided to check them out and I instantly loved their song 'Love Again'. I loved it so much that it inspired me to write a fan fiction one shot (seen in my wattpad). Besides them, last year the #amazingphil, 40% is based on TRXYE by Troye Sivan that it got Platinum in Australia, Number 1 in 50+ countries and was part of the top hits selection in iTunes last month (although I'm a bit jelly since Troye is 19 and I'm near that age and i haven't succeeded in anything)</div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-SpGG3iKBAuk/VR76stLnHTI/AAAAAAAAAWo/Lvex8Mnvm4c/s640/blogger-image-1707959088.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-SpGG3iKBAuk/VR76stLnHTI/AAAAAAAAAWo/Lvex8Mnvm4c/s640/blogger-image-1707959088.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">Next is the vlogbrothers (John Green) having 2 of his books turned into Movies and its freaking amazing because I cried 5 times in&nbsp;<i>The&nbsp;Fault in Our Stars</i>&nbsp;and I'm already hyped up for&nbsp;<i>Paper Towns</i>&nbsp;this year. Oh my goodness... Please make&nbsp;<i>The&nbsp;Abundance of Katherines</i>&nbsp;film!</div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-CvLXFZonGqU/VR76t2TuXtI/AAAAAAAAAWw/BmnC1W46pQM/s640/blogger-image--1051255220.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-CvLXFZonGqU/VR76t2TuXtI/AAAAAAAAAWw/BmnC1W46pQM/s640/blogger-image--1051255220.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">Lastly is YouTube on TV. I'm not talking about pressing a web browser on your plasma/LCD tv and going onto YouTube but more on YouTubers working on radio, featured on TV and stuff like that. Besides Dan and Phil on BBC Radio 1, I watched Grace Helbig with Jimmy Fallon in ABC 2, watched iHasCupquake on Wipeout via Youtube and actually enjoyed the Annoying Orange TV series 2 years ago on ABC 3 and thats a good thing! The problem with this is when major TV stations STEALS from YouTubers. So far, the only incidents I've heard was Nickelodeon stealing Phil's 7 second challenge and didnt give credit and something about Jimmy Fallon taking Joe Sugg's whisper challenge and 'sort off' give credit (don't look at me, blame Tumblr --- these fan girls give really good and extensive evidence based on the issue). There is a part of me that says 'I don't mind' but it kinda hurts knowing that creators get their ideas stolen and its up to the fans to retaliate and the creator is TOTALY unaware.</div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">But in the end... YouTube merging to Traditional media? I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing because anything can happen in just an upload or a broadcast and I'm kinda afraid that the essence of YouTube being a medium for the creative will become a medium for commercial and business and the next thing you know... the YouTube we once love is gone and transformed into... I don't know... A market place or something and we as the viewer will no longer be viewers or fans but more of a consumer, a mindless robot to buy and such rather than to enjoy the content.</div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">I still love YouTube and the fact that I can still be creative is great! Just hope YouTube doesn't blow it or take away the creative essence of YouTube away...</div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><br /></div><div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392); color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;">Cutiejea</div>Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-54573958749382471722015-04-01T03:33:00.001-07:002016-07-04T06:34:53.849-07:00My Name is CutiejeaHello Lovely People,<br /><div><br /></div><div>First post... I could talk about April fools but I'm doing a Phandom tradition if we can re-create 2013...</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-m1X-vPKmWxE/VRvJk8C6sYI/AAAAAAAAAWM/nG2DfQZJ9wY/s640/blogger-image-543479589.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-m1X-vPKmWxE/VRvJk8C6sYI/AAAAAAAAAWM/nG2DfQZJ9wY/s640/blogger-image-543479589.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div>Due to my lack of followers... You can see why it may not be happening....</div><div><br /></div><div>So I just want to talk about my username... Cutiejea.</div><div><br /></div><div>What is a Cutiejea? Why that? And why the hell am I blogging about this if I made a video based on this topic? Well... The username process was way longer than than what I mentioned. I was pretty subborn when I was young and I hated the idea of not changing the name cuz lets face it... I was like 7 or 8 years old and I dont want that to stick when I'm like 20 years old.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>So why the hell did i decided to stick with it?</div><div><br /></div><div>Well... Club Penguin was the first MMO I've ever played and the fact that they can't see my face is both a good and bad thing (although... Due to instagram and youtube, you now know how I exactly look like). The plan was to have 'Pinkjea' as my username but back in OLD SCHOOL Club Penguin, pink is more likely fuchsia and due to my young age... you can see why I didnt go through with it.</div><div><br /></div><div>To be honest, it was my cousin who suggested Cutiejea. Back then... I was uber cute but due to aging and stress... That was gone but when I was a little kid, me being shy or crying or even my RARE smile can equalise to cuteness.</div><div><br /></div><div>'Jea' is a family secret and when I mean family secret... There is no way in hell you will know... Unless you marry me or something.</div><div><br /></div><div>So why did I stick with this username? This happened due to Minecraft. I bought it about a month before the full release and when i went to this multiplayer server, there was this shop and one bed equals 4 coal. But i got it for 3 coal and the players behind me were really mad cuz they had to pay more.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>I just realised that the reason why some small server admins give me special treatment is due to the gender of my avatar. My username isnt like some phony username that a dude would use cuz he wants to troll people, its something an ACTUALL girl would use. My avatar skin back then was Yui from the anime 'Angel Beats' and it was really cute that it matched the username.</div><div><br /></div><div>So basically... This username is proof that I'm not some boy on the internet. So the username sticks.</div><div><br /></div><div>It sometimes sucks though cuz in real life, cute is the ONLY adjective my peers gives to me so its kinda sad that my online life sometimes clashes with my real life... Due to one adjective.</div><div><br /></div><div>And come on... How is this image not cute:</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-oGUetgMA6GI/VRvJjN8cb_I/AAAAAAAAAWE/FVSd1nnVCag/s640/blogger-image--1990276682.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-oGUetgMA6GI/VRvJjN8cb_I/AAAAAAAAAWE/FVSd1nnVCag/s640/blogger-image--1990276682.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div>So... Hope that gives this username that perspective!</div><div><br /></div><div>Cutiejea out!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972757118891594154.post-17661340511130649172015-04-01T02:53:00.002-07:002016-07-04T06:34:10.528-07:00The first pageHello lovely people....<br /><br />I know Im posting this on April 1 but let me tell you... This is no prank, joke or anything. This is my official blog which I like to call: Life out of the Camera. You may be wondering, why the hell am I now in Blogger or whats wrong with youtube?<br /><br />The thing is that... There are some things I couldnt share on camrea due to reasons and at the same time, I tend to leave out stuff when I vlog. At the same time, this is the only medium where I can mention some old video content like my old 'Sexual Innundoes' video back in 2014. I wanted to have a place where I can type my feelings and opinions and at the same time (and hopefully) not hurting anyone.<br /><br />So... There may be times I will LITERALLY forget that I started this page but tell that to my twitter and facebook accounts where i forgot to do 'Quote of the week' or 'Weekly book characters'. And due to the amount of things in my plate, I will tend to forget but I will try to post some stuff. So bare with me.<br /><br />Life out of the Camera is bascially like my thoughts when I'm not Youtubing so I do hope you enjoy.<br /><br />Cutiejea Out!Cutiejeahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15446953962378894170noreply@blogger.com0
